Have you developed ingenious business processes to help your own corporation handle the challenges of this tough economy? Did you dream up an environmentally friendly way to eliminate product waste? UniformMarket News wants to hear your story and consider you for a 2012 UNIVATOR Award.

The UNIVATOR Awards celebrate innovation in the North American uniform, image apparel, medical goods, footwear and equipment markets. For eight years, the UNIVATOR Awards have been shining a light on amazing advancements that keep this industry moving forward. They acknowledge companies, both large and small, that are forging unique paths to success.

A UNIVATOR Award is the highest and most coveted honor of its kind, fostering a healthy spirit of competition within the industry and motivating companies to think outside the box. They garner the attention of industry professionals and the general public alike, and a UNIVATOR Award can help your company position itself among the movers and shakers in the industry.

Simply provide us with your company's information, photos, and supporting materials, and select a category that your innovation falls under. Choose from thirteen categories, including fabric innovations, website design and eCommerce, and store redesign. Alternatively, you are welcome to create your own category.
